Protest Leaders Call for Reshaping America’s Founding Institutions at Washington Rally

By: Libby Bandelin | The Federalist ‘We want to tear the American system down,’ one protestor told The Federalist. A week before the 250th anniversary of America declaring independence, more than 1,000 people assembled at the nation’s capital to make a declaration of their own: their vision to dismantle America’s founding institutions. “All of US Next250 National Mobilization” protested the Trump administration, debuted new “founding documents,” and re-envisioned America as seen by Marxist revolutionaries. “It’s not just a day, it’s a movement, and it’s been three years in the making,” Saru Jayarman, a co-organizer of Next250, told The Federalist. “This is the time to set the tone for what the next 250 years will be.” Dozens of activist organizations assembled...

Economists Say Trump Accounts Could Transform Long Term Savings For Millions Of Families

U.S. Keeps World Cup Dream Alive With Hard-Fought Victory Over Bosnia

By: Staff | CBS News The United States is through to the round of 16 after taking down Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-0, in just the second-ever win in the World Cup knockout round for the men's team — but a controversial red card will leave the national team without one of its key players for the next match. Folarin Balogun got the scoring going with a goal in the 45th minute, sending the U.S. into the half with a 1-0 lead. It looked like Balogun had given the U.S. the lead in the 31st minute, but he was called offside, and another opportunity in stoppage time at the end of the first half bounced off the crossbar.  But Balogun was sent off with a red card in the 64th minute after challenging Bosnia's Tarik Muharemović and coming down on his foot, c...

Supreme Court Upholds Counting of Mail Ballots Received After Election Day

By: The Washington Stand | The Western Journal A closely-divided U.S. Supreme Court has handed down a critical decision on election integrity, jeopardizing the security of American elections and the sovereignty of the nation. In an opinion released Monday morning in Watson v. Republican National Committee (RNC), the court’s narrow majority ruled that mail-in ballots postmarked by election day may still be counted even if received after election day. “Three federal statutes set the day for the election of Representatives, Senators, and the President,” Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote for the majority. At issue is a Mississippi state law allowing ballots received by mail and postmarked by election day to be counted for up to five days after election day. The RNC argued...

High Court Blocks Trump Plan To Restrict Birthright Citizenship

By: Jacob Wheeler | The Daily Wire "The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to 'every free-born person in this land,'" Roberts wrote. The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday permanently blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order seeking to restrict birthright citizenship, dealing a significant blow to his immigration agenda and preventing a sweeping overhaul of who qualifies for U.S. citizenship. In a landmark ruling authored by Chief Justice John Roberts, the Supreme Court held that children born in the United States to parents unlawfully or temporarily present are “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States and are citizens at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Citizenship Clause. “Citizenship, then and now, was the right ...
